A nice brown leather Day sporran almost certainly by WE Scott Edinburgh for $50.

Their catalogue had some puzzling codes, and the sporrans with that Celtic knotwork stamp on the flap (and sometimes on the body too) were called AZSF.
They were often done in cowhide treated to imitate pigskin, in this later catalogue called "khaki" for some reason.
The AZSF model was sold in many variants going back to the 1930s.
Bottom row, left, shows the somewhat different Celtic knotwork flap stamp used by Nicoll Brothers Bankfoot.
Incidentally there's a Nicoll Brothers AZSF on Ebay now https://www.ebay.com/itm/26649568113...%7C1750%7C3000
Top row, right, shows a flap stamp of a maker unknown to me.
The rest show the flap stamp used by WE Scott and I believe by some other makers as well.
I believe that this is the earliest image I have of that style, from a 1938 catalogue, bottom left.
